Saw nothing in the clip to suggest we should bust our balls to sign this chap .. Just my assessment of him. Bang average One mans meat is another mans poison, I suppose. I thought he was mustard in the clip I saw.

Bang average I've not even bothered to watch it as a youtube video of someones best bits isn't exactly the best judge of a players ability - I could produce a best bits video of myself which would make me look half decent and I'm useless.

Tim Vickery on Talksport just remarked although Rincon could knit the team together effectively believes that Jedi is better defensively. Edited by Booted Eagle (31 Aug 2016 3.26pm)

Roma apparently have a bid in too. I don't know if that is just agents or his club pumping the price. I would like this guy at Palace. Can't shoot or cross according to the Youtube vid, but we're used that here. Edited by pstrutt (31 Aug 2016 11.28am) Once it's official they have Wiltshire I guess there interest in Rincon will go away and we won't have to enter a bidding war. Think this transfer will therefore take sometime. 10.30pm?

probably the best analysis I've seen of Rincon in this thread. From reading the thread it looks like most of you aren't familiar with him so allow me to give you a bit of a scouting report. Note that I'm Venezuelan but I'm not here to give you bias and tell you he's Vidal. I'd actually call him a poor man's version of the Chilean midfielder which I'd guess most of you would be happy with. Granted I don't know much about your team. I don't really have a BPL team, I sort of follow WBA because of Rondon but as you would understand Pulis makes it extremely difficult for anyone to become a fan of that playing style. On a funny note, as you might be aware players are on international brake and therefore Rincon and Rondon are together with the rest of the Venezuelan NT and Rincon just decided to post this on his twitter account [Tweet Link]
I might be reading too much into it, but I think that's his way of hinting he's going to the BPL. Rincon is basically a DM whose game isn't just limited to that. As the stats show it he's a very good passer with above-average vision and most importantly high IQ. He'll push the ball down the pitch. He'll maul opponents for the ball. You only need to talk to Hamburg and Genoa fans to realize the majority of them will give you high reviews on this guy. Looking at the lineup you usually run he'd probably battle for a spot next to Cabaye. Obviously he's also a leader as he's been Venezuela's captain for a couple of years now. He has the physicality and stamina to play in the BPL. Sell one out international captain and buying another one. Must say this fella sounds decent and should fit in the Prem well. Looking forward to Parish getting this over the line.
